The Blue and Gold colours relate to the Dormer and
the Rothschild family. The Dormers were the owners of the manor of Wing from the
1400s until the estate was dispensed with by their descendant the Earl of
Chesterfield in 1840. The Rothschild’s became prominent in the village in the
middle of the 19th century and are still the major landowner’s of the area.

The golden arch represents the Saxon element of the village. The church is
one of the oldest in the country and the oldest building to survive in the
parish. The falcon represents the Dormer family and this was part of their
heraldry as they were Keeper of the King’s falcons for several generations. This
was an important job and brought them close to the royal family. The tombs of
the Dormers have just been restored in the church and the falcon can be seen at
the foot of the tomb of Sir William Dormer.
